I'm finally working on the detailing and finishing... and there's nothing quite like a camera to help you find the spots that need to be touched-up. In particular the (unfinished) gun return, and the shell storage.

But I'm very happy with how the radio turned out, although you can't see the metallic sheen in these photos, and that I managed to get the tiny headset built and positioned without losing my mind. Of course none of this would be complete without cracked leather seats!

I still have a lot of finishing to do, more detailing, weathering, the road wheels and tracks, and a bit of stowage. I do hope to have it finished in the first week of February though.

I can finally announce officially, that I will be joining Mathieu Fontaine for his Masterclass II, which will be
held on March 2-3 in Sherbrooke, Québec. This will truly be the most epic Masterclass I've ever done. I will be teaching the Sunday portion of the class
on weathering with pigments as well as other weathering techniques. I
will also be present on Saturday to lend a hand, so you will be getting
two teachers for the price of one for the entire weekend.
During this class, you’ll be exposed to two ways of thinking in terms of
painting and weathering. Bring a notebook...

This class will be a once in a lifetime experience. Do not expect it
to be recreated since I doubt that any of the circumstances will ever be
right again. Sunday will therefore be in English but Mathieu will be there to
translate to French if need be.

So jump on this opportunity for the greatest Masterclass II ever. You
are getting two professionals from the industry at your disposal for an
entire weekend. Part of the crew from Screaming Heretic podcast will also be present. I can guarantee you that there won’t be a dull moment during the entire weekend.
So if you have not reserved a spot yet for the class do it now. It
should fill up fast. For information or registration contact Mathieu directly
at akaranseth@gmail.com or through the contact form on his blog. Do not forget that
his Masterclass I is also offered on the previous weekend of February
23-24.
